Since that column appeared in The Journal News and lohud.com, several people have either called or sent me e-mails asking how they may give Bell monetary assistance for the holidays. I’ve been telling readers that Bell was not necessarily seeking [...]

Westchester County was thwarted!
The regime of County Executive Andy Spano was stopped from a bait-and-switch land deal, thanks to an alert legislator and a motivated group of homeowners. What the heck, I’ll take a little credit, too.
As reported on this bog and in The Journal News, the county originally had offered to sell a half-acre [...]

This just in from Don Debar, the peripatetic Ossining activist. Don passed this bit of doggie news onto to me as a favor to a friend. Check it out.

It’s been four years since the Ossining School District ditched the Indians as a team mascot in favor of the RiverHawks, a politically correct fit of pique which angered the old guard. The hard feelings bubbled to the surface last week when the name was changed (again!) to the O’s.
